TO AUGUSTA- Availing ourselves us the tern [apiary privilege* ■of aStockliohler ..f the Georgia RailroaJ.we took the care on Mgpday Inst to attend the Conven tion in Augusta; riding, oliutn cum dipnitate, free of expense, t’fuui tjie fFashington depot we had ao extra car, which, at Barnett, wae atlaelt ed to a special t rnjn ha* the benefit of Stockhuld cre, ptifjpg that point art hour earlier than the regulaf traip. And uc loudly hoped (hat thia arrangement was to expedite our arrival in Aa guata, hut it did not. The regular train paaaed ua by at itearing and readied the city a half hour alidad ofga. Tliia wa» probably iwcatise it waa considered incolmlstbut with ihe dignity of mem Inga us the corporation to he in a hurry, and not fyqwuae President Kixu wanted to snub the con pem, nor allow how easy he could liandlc the au gust body of q'fdcli he ia head, out of convention ua well aa in convention. Not at all. Well t lie ingin good company and knowing that Augusta jvaswguily expecting »e, and would certainly pot, pn a py account, l» out of the way when We Jjlpt'kliolduiaj arrived, we w ere contest to f/tum easily on, looking our best. Our (rain was a very long one, though not very crowded, for it xra* A special accotiauodutiori train of cars, not jtuck core, though the dead heads within were Stockholder*, dnd a very respeeti Ids mid dig nified looking body they were, some of them of aery much body, i ml some nobody, and some the prettiest UUle female bodies in the world-and in fact we Boldly undertake to aay that the fe jnaju stock llttldura in Ihe Georgia ltuad are bet ter looking all day than those of any oilier road, .even though the other road tuny pay larger div- idends. llsu found Augusta still on the Savannah ills sir, and snyiflily glad to sue us. Many persons welcomed us vociferously At the depot and kindly told its which was the best hotel—lmt as they did not agree at all in their statements, n strang er wight still quo lion which was belt. Those who bespoke the chums of tho Augusta Hotel said tliul “prices were cut down to one half,” du ring Cdhveution week, and (lint settled our fancy; a half plicu fare can’t ho the “good things" wo went.to the city te get, mid u half price pudding for diuner pula us too much in mind of those to called “Confederate puddings” during the war, and which wire always abortive attempts to make a sweet thing without sugnr. So fur our own parts we mudu our wny to Hewitt's Globe Hotel, where we got whole fare and plenty of it, all sweetened. Mr. Uewit knows how lu keep u hotel. Yon hot I We m»d* up (luring our stay for titer fco much half price we Imvo luuJ at lum>ti, aiul co got nil \vu bargained for. iWCotmuitioii of StockhoUkTß wo attended, of course, adjourning from time to time down to Plumb's nod a fountain, after bin boiling cold toda wafer—for the proceeding* were very dow and laxy, aud neither the venerable President nor the Caution* treasurer, nor nny of the gentlemanly directors cracked a joke. The Board made a good enough showing to satisfy «is that having gotten along thus far withont our counsel, they could still survive without it, oud we left them to follow their ownVay, while we made haste home. \Y« should not omit to state that during Hew B4^*urnp< lions dinner, while we were in media * fee, Homewliero between the mock turtle soup, piutttyi chops ami ice cream, a most ohe-arining, as oulate«ii ring grinding organ, with a Deutsche* pmnn nud ntonkeo attached, played Jeannette aiid Jcannot in lugubrious tones, under the win dow—said to be free music to all stockholders iu the Georgia Ha Iroad, sent for their amusement by Ms. President King, at his own expense.

The Radical mill and betory .Owners aud turners in Connecticult and Massa chusetts ate the only parties we have yet heard of excraiskig such despotism over their employ ee-; and that they bare actually done so is be yond dispute. IKhen onr whites in the South begin such a practice, it will he good evidence that the seeds of Radicalism are taking root. IT We are forcibly reminded, in reading the following, from the Richmond Times, of the ad vice to the Radical party, given by Wendell Phillips, in his “Muscadine Letter” which we published two weeks ago, to wit: that we should “use the whole police force of the North to hold the South quiet, tchile the seeds of Radicalism arc planted” General Schofield is Die Police Offi cer, and Senator Wilson, every inch a dirty radi cal, is the man who plants the seed.

Wynns, Proprietor of ths Rich mond times, Richmond, Va. : Sir The Commanding General directs me to call your attention to an editorial article in the Richmond times of tlris morning, headed “A Black Man's Party in Virginia,” and to say that, while lie desires not only to permit, hut to en courage the utmost freedom of discussion of [kj lilicat questions, the character of the article re ferred to calls for severe censure. Kepecinlly the following words: “It is u proposition which im plies Dial they are ready to g-asp the blood stained hands of the authors of our ruin,'* are an intolerable insult to all soldiers of the Uuited States army, and no less so to all true soldiers of the lute Confederate nrmy, as they have, long since, extended toencli other the cordial hand of friendship and pledged their united efforts to ro store peace end harmony to our whole country. The efforts of your pafnir to foster enmity, create disorder and lead to violence can no long er he tulernted. It Is hoped this war nine will he sufficient. Very respectfully, your obd't servant, H. F. Übai-fin. Assistant Adjutnut General. The single sentence from this paper, which the I military Commandant of the District makes the sghjeft of especial condemnation, was taken from the very heart of an editorial, in which the fail ure of a Radical emissary to build up a party.*V| Virginia was thoeiibjcct of commt»V A)lutl»£- to Beuator iPileon’e failure to secure Ihe co (.ps~ ration of the Whig party in tliia State, we said: "The insult which this offer conveys, the ill mannered Puritan does (lot seem to understand. It implies that these hightuiied, chivalric Whig gentlemen do not properly resent Ihe outrage and crimes which the Radicals have committed against their section and liberties, ft is a pro position which implies that they are ready to grasp the himal-staiued hands of the authors us our 1 uiu. -dud they roseqt it with the fierce, ter rihlu and implacable indignation with w hich an honest legislator would rejectn bribe.” A portion of this paragraph is elected by the commandant as the most objectionable in the editorial, and censured because it constitutes “an intolerable insult to all soldiers of the United States army, and no luss so to all true soldiers of ol the late Confederate Army, as they have long since extended to each other the cordial hand of friendship, and pledged their united efforts to restore peace and harmony to our whole conn try,” New, thu sentiment and language of this extract are unexceptionable, and hut for thu pereieteiit eflfotteof tua Radical party to norput uatediscord.il! feeling aml'ngitation, we believe peace would liavo beau long since restorer!, liut, ns the soldiers us the United States and of late Confederacy have nothing in common with the politioal crusade of Senator Wilson, we nav er dreamed that, in ascribing the ruin and over throw of onr civil rights against the Radical par ty, and in protesting against apolitcnl coalition with flint parly, we were offering an “intolerable insult” to the Federal soldiers. The words blood stained" were used in a figurative sense : for tic-re is no blood upon the heroic hands of senator Wilson, nor is lie sufficiently identified, by reason of his deed* of valor during the lute civil wai, with tfw army, for the Federal soldiery to resent liny hunfii opinion which we may express as to Ids efl'wrta to Build up a radical parly in Virginia.

Ma. Editor-- Dear Sir: Enclosed find two dollurs, for which please have tire La Crosae Dem ocrat sent to my address to Dantmrg. ns 1 see you arc an agent for said paper. The farmers are driving on very well down this way. 'Hie only drawback now seems to lie the necessary supplies. 1 am fearful some will fail on that ac count, after going thus far. The oat crops arc looking finely, am! w ith a little aid, to put the farmers 20 or 00 days further along, would be U benefit that probably would be felt for a long time to come. I hear of some furmers in the comi ty', (hat are now about to abandon their farms, not fo r the want of lalwr, plough stock and ener gy on their |vnt, But for tho want of the aliso lute necessaries for man aud Beast, fodder seems u. \cr to tayo been as scarce, and mv ex perience is that plough shark w ill not <lo at all without a liberal supply of roughness. Conse ip eully, bw the last three ur four years, I have liecn saving my w heat 6traw, instead of leaving it iu the field to rot; and X find, where it has he.n well saved.it is an excellent substitute for fodder, and would advise every man that raises U heat, to save carefully his straw, and use U du ring tho winter instead of fodder, f don’t think straw badly rusted, would do well te feed on, but j when free from rust it is au excellent thing to I have. 1 have had wagon loads of it hauled from mv house this year by farmers -is and seven miles off, who say, hereafter, if they can get enough wheat straw they wont purchase north ern hay. Freedmen arc working very welL- J account for that by the great distance they Erg ] off irom the excitement tliat Is now in on abet* the little towns and cities. I see from the papers that ex-Governor Brown wants to be Senator, or something else of that kind, and is canvassing the State. If not on a general tonr, he speaks whenever he gets a chance. Such a thing ia certainly very demoral izing to the loyal population, and if it spreads over the country generally, will be, in my judg ment, a dire calamity. So I think if Gen. Pope puts his gag on Gov. Jenkings for doing no barm at all, he had better stifle Joseph and bis kind, r#Hfkiiß9f<ftA evojHa made. I am very sorry Joseph went upon that high mountain, as be didn't have the nerve and manliness to rebuke the Devil, for I used to tie hard and fast to Joseph, and he liaa deceived me n-ore than any man in Georgia. When Gov. Jenkins attacks the great city, Ai, (the rotten Congress) here comes up Achan, (Joseph E.) aud throws his whole weight against the Governor, and I am impressed with the belief that Joseph E., like “Achan of old, has got the Babylonish garment, two hundred she kels of silver and a wedge of gold,” I remember in 1861, when brave Joseph sullied forth from Hie capitol, went to Augusta, called out the Militia and captured the Arsenal. Before the papers reached this neighborhood telliog of Joe's gzeat military exploit, I met a friend who wa just from Augusta. I asked him the news. Oh ! he said, we had great times tn Augusta yesterday. Gov. Brown there, and had taken the Arsenic, (mean ing the .-trsenal.) I asked him if Joseph was dead, thinking he had committed suicide. Why no, he said, there was not a gun fired. Then I understood him. Suppose, Mr. Editor, that Joe had taken a sure enough dose of arsenic, don't you think the State of Georgia would have been better off t Mr. Editor, the weather now a days is very much alter tho order of the bankrupt bill, nobody understands it. If we don’t havo better times for working, there is one thing that is inev. itahle—those tliat are not bankrupts, will bo, af ter this year. The weather no doubt suit* some body, likely it suite Joseph, fur it is a good time to set out collurds. Respect fully, Lincoln. fmimniMAUß.} WILKES AGRICULTUBAL CLUB H'hat hat become of this Association, its Offi csrs and Members ?

I allude to the wheal crop I'ersons aim {Vipers represent it generally very premising, hut we hear of rust, from almost every quarter.

If Ihe theory lluive heard he correct, the time wilt soon come to apply the remedy, and for one, I should-like, if possible, to steer aright. Many, if not the ma jority. of wheat growers and flout makers, con tend that a greater quantity, whiter and sweeter flour is obtained by early cutting—Umg la fore, in the estimation of many, the grain is ready for the scythe, lf'hile others contend that to have perfect wheat, and no smut, it shouid he dead ripe before culling; claiming to get in meat what they loose in wheat-—the hog, being n moet Suc cessful gleaner, |tnd nothing gives him a better stal l for the pork barrel, than the wheat field. Those advocating early cutting are afraid of storms. My iufortmnt says he has never lost a crop in an experience of twenty-seven years, and never cute until the heads bsgm to turn down.— He says (which is, noduuht, true) that when thus ripe, when cut, one day's stunting equals two or thru# w hen cut ill the dough. This latter, ia ah important fact, for it is a heavy job at a busy time, and often wheat is lost lor the want of pro per sunning after a cloudy damp spell. Aud lastly—in that timu lie Ims never soaked wheat, and has never had any smut, and hit neighbors are now adopting hit plan. At an evidence of hit succus.ful planting, on indication that his ex perience is worth something, he one year made 500 bushels wheat on 40 acres bottom land, then planted corn iu J tine, gathered 700 bushels, be side a heavy crop of peas. Who is right! I, for one, would like to know. Come up, then, w best growers’ tell your experience, and you may hear Something to your advantage about saving (lit crop. A Msuata. Call Immefliately.
